About: I've taken care of many dogs from chihuahua's, poodle mixes, corgi's and pointers. I have the most experience with small dogs but would love to take care of your large pups too! I have experience caring for and feeding medication to senior dogs from Muttville in San Francisco and lived and cared for a very anxious corgi for two years so have a lot of experience navigating and understanding when a dog needs space. I cannot wait to meet your pup! I'm starting grad school in late august so have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available weekdays and weekends for now and will update my schedule once school is back in session. I have a small fenced in yard if the pup needs a quiet enclosed area to play in. I have experience crating anxious corgis and giving medication and am willing to follow any rules you have to ensure good training and safety for your dog. Ultimately, I just want you and your pet to be comfortable!

Sandra was absolutely fantastic caring for my older cats who need lots of attention. She was incredible with communication and arrived on time through two separate bookings. She is very consistent! My two cats were very comfortable with her and seemed to be excited to see her when she would arrive. I highly recommend.

About: I grew up in a dog rescue where I took care and trained multiple dogs and other animals. • Experience caring for cats and dogs of different sizes and temperaments • Comfortable with shy animals that need patience and slow introductions • Familiar with feeding schedules, litter box care, and basic medication administration • Able to manage energetic dogs during walks while keeping them safe and controlled • Respectful of home routines and house rules I’m an early riser and naturally active, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time at parks, which makes dog walking and exercise a great fit for my schedule. I work mostly remotely and have a flexible workday, so I’m able to accommodate morning, evening, and nighttime care without any issues. With enough notice, midday visits are also easy for me to schedule. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to give pets consistent attention, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or just spending time keeping them company. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure the pet feels comfortable by keeping their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions provided. I enjoy interacting and playing with animals, whether that means walks, trips to the park, or indoor playtime. At the same time, I understand that every pet has different comfort levels, so I make sure to respect their space and let them approach interaction at their own pace. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

Kai is incredible! Communication was easy and she was so reliable. We have a senior cat that needed lots of special attention and a complicated feeding instruction, but Kai was able to administer everything the old kitty needed each day, with reports showing what we needed to know. She also noticed the old kitty was losing appetite and flagged it so we can change up his diet in the middle of the booking. We really appreciate the attentive care. We also have another very shy female cat in the house, and Kai was able to approach her on day three!!! It was extremely special.

About: I've been watching dogs for about 7 years now, mostly small and medium dogs, and I have a real soft spot for herding breeds. I love going on walks with them, usually around 30-45 minutes in the neighborhood, to help burn off their energy and keep them active. I especially love walking younger, energetic dogs because I can go longer with them (getting my steps in) but, I also have a big love for senior dogs and take it slower and easier for them. Every dog is different, so I like to give them what they need — whether that's a good long walk or just sweet cuddles and their own space to relax. I try to keep things calm for them the whole time they're with me. I also send lots of pictures throughout the day so you can see your pup enjoying themselves and know they're safe and having a good time. Right now I'm actually watching a friend's dog, and I'd love to bring that same care to your pup too. I do ask for at least 24 hours' notice when possible, just so I can work around everyone's schedule and be fully ready for your dog. I have a lot of flexibility right now and I'm available throughout the week and most weekends, aside from Saturday nights. That means I can usually work around whatever schedule fits you and your pet best. I prefer taking care of animals in their own home. When their family is away, that can be a stressful, uncertain time for them, so making sure they still feel safe and at home is always my top priority. I keep their routine as normal as possible — same feeding times, same walks, same spaces — so the change feels as small as possible for them. If we're at my place instead, I love watching them explore and get curious about a new environment. Helping them feel comfortable and at ease is always the most important thing to me, whether that's in their home or mine.

About: I believe dogs and cats have a way of communicating, and I’ve learned to understand them deeply, creating a truly rewarding connection. I can read their subtle cues and know exactly what they need. I’m partially retired, and because I love dogs, caring for them fits perfectly into my daily routine. This opportunity allows me to spend quality time with your four-legged family member while helping you with their care on a temporary basis. I have owned my home for the last 20 years and have been an active member of my HOA board, even leading the security committee for several years—demonstrating my commitment to a safe, secure environment. Additionally, I rescued and cared for a 10-pound Pomeranian in my condo for six wonderful years, ensuring his well-being daily. These experiences reflect my dedication to responsible care and vigilance—qualities I bring to any dog walking service.

About: 🐾 A Loving Home Away From Home for Your Dog Welcome! My name is Chen zhang, and I'm a full-time, work-from-home pet sitter who provides personalized care in a peaceful, loving environment. Your dog will enjoy constant companionship throughout the day, with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Since pet sitting is my full-time job, I can closely follow your dog's routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care they may need. One of the best parts of my home is the cozy private garden, where dogs can safely explore, relax, and soak up the sunshine. We're also just a short walk from San Pablo Park, a beautiful dog-friendly park that offers plenty of space for exercise, sniffing adventures, and fun outdoor play. I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, and respect. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, a senior, or a puppy, I'll care for them according to their unique personality and needs. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, happy, and loved—as if they were part of my own family. I can't wait to welcome your furry friend into my home! In addition, I’ve had dogs for over 16 years and truly understand how to care for animals with patience and love. I also have experience rescuing and helping stray dogs and cats, so I’m very attentive to different personalities, emotions, and special needs. My doggies back in China are all rescued and adopted by me and my family. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including senior pets who need extra patience and gentle attention. I treat every pet like family and always try to make them feel safe, calm, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m available full-time and can provide care every day, including weekdays and weekends. I have a flexible schedule, so pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets both in my home and in my client’s home. I carefully follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort to help them feel relaxed and secure while their owners are away. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, affection, clean spaces, fresh water, and regular exercise. In my client’s home, I respect the pet’s familiar environment and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: For the last four years I’ve lived in a home with two Rhodesian Ridgebacks. One was a senior at 13 years old and the other is three. I’ve learned how to adapt to their different needs based on age and personality while setting boundaries and aligning to my Housemate’s desires for their care. (Which has helped me get to know new dogs pretty quickly.) We walk, play and cuddle. When needed I administer medication, feed them, and sometimes cook for them. I look forward to chatting with you about your family’s needs. When house sitting I do not schedule any other families for walks or drop-ins. The care I provide is all inclusive so that your baby gets all of my love and care. If I am not house sitting, I’m available everyday after 11am for walks and drop-ins within a 1 mile radius of lower Rockridge or easily reachable by public transportation. To ensure safety and comfort, I won’t be walking any other dogs outside of your household. I am available to spend time with your pet(s) in their home where they will be the most comfortable. I’ll come to you for walks.

About: Hi! My name is Ryan and I would love to meet and take care of your pet(s)! I've grown up with dogs and cats in the house and have always felt a very loving bond and connection with animals. I had two cats that passed away a little while ago so I now have more time and space to care for other peoples’ animals. I'm respectful, honest, and a good communicator. I am very conscientious and considerate of other people's space, and will make sure to keep your house nice and clean! I am very flexible and can adapt and personalize services to meet the needs of you and your pet. I work part time so I have a lot of flexibility and will be able to spend lots of time at your house and play/care for your pet. I will keep your house as neat/clean as it was when you left it. I am respectful and considerate of other people's homes/property. I've used pet sitters in the past so I know what how it feels to entrust someone in your home and I don't take that lightly.

About: I have raised a Chi-Weenie from when she was a puppy all the way to her senior years, adopted a Chi-Pit, and my recent love was a Staffy-Lab (Luna, in my profile picture). I have experience with a range of ages and breeds, and I’ll love your pets as my own. I work from home so I am available for walks, feeding, and lots of playtime! My schedule is flexible which means lots of love and pets are available to your fur baby. I always make sure your dog is securely fitted in their harness and/or leash before leaving for walks. I also double check to make sure everything is locked up before leaving.

Cassandra went beyond expectations and really took care of my little ones. She on time and asked me if there was anything else she could do to help. She was able to wipe down my Persians water eyes (despite his tantrums) and asked questions to clarify the cats needs. I would definitely rebooks and recommend!

About: I’ve been a pet caregiver since I was 15 and have been an owner of dogs of all breeds since I was 3! In home, overnight, periodical experience included. I have experience administering medication, dog walking and surgery aftercare as well. *Important* To the fellow pet parents & animal lovers alike, I’d just like to step in and thank you for considering me as your pet caregiver! I’m honored & grateful for the opportunity to care for your 4 legged family member. If I become your final choice and plans are arranged for a meet & greet, dates have been booked & both parties have confirmed your booking via the app, I just wanted to kindly & respectfully request that ALL of you wonderful parents, be mindful of cancellations. I completely understand that life happens, things change that are out of our control that allow cancellations to be of the utmost necessity; given said occurrences and situations. However, if you have a back up caregiver in mind outside of the app, a family member, a friend or just something that cause for you to feel any amount of uncertainty towards your booking, I strongly encourage you to please exhaust any of your other potential caregiving options prior to booking with me. I do have various different gigs and this one is my highest paying one. When a client cancels, it becomes quite difficult, overwhelming and frustrating to have a booking default to void after being reassured that my services are required. I genuinely enjoy my Rover clients and do hope to care for as many fuzzy friends as I can but financially & emotionally, I can’t afford to have clients that dangle confirmed bookings & then rescind them. Please be 100% sure that if you’re booking with me, you will keep your scheduled appointments if you’re absolutely capable in doing so. This constantly reoccurring issue is becoming far too frequent & this is my best effort & attempt at getting a handle on things. Once again I appreciate every single one of you & thank you all so very much for your consideration! I can’t take care of your little fuzzy one in my home but I can guarantee the trust and safety to be able to do so in yours. I have references to verify that as well, upon request.
